EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a drapery study for an apostle, created by the renowned artist Albrecht Dürer. The intricate details of the jacket and sleeve, along with the over-the-knee thrown lappet, are beautifully captured in this preliminary study for the Assumption image. Dürer painted this remarkable piece in 1508 as part of the Helleric altar commissioned by Jacob Heller in Frankfurt. Unfortunately, tragedy struck when the altar was destroyed in a fire that engulfed Munich in 1674. However, this ink and brush drawing on gray-green prepared paper allows us to appreciate Dürer's skillful technique and his ability to bring life to fabric through his art. Belonging to the Upper German School, Dürer is celebrated as one of history's most influential artists. His mastery of various mediums has left an indelible mark on art history. This particular drapery study exemplifies his attention to detail and dedication to capturing realism. Presented here as part of Handzeichnungen alter Meister aus der Albertina und anderen Sammlungen (Hand Drawings by Old Masters from Albertina and other Collections), published by Joseph Schönbrunner and Dr. Joseph Meder, this print offers viewers a glimpse into Dürer's creative process. With its timeless beauty and historical significance, this exquisite artwork is sure to captivate any admirer of fine art or lover of Renaissance masterpieces.
